INTRODUCTION TO MASM
AIM:
To get a basic idea of MASM and its usage.
APPARATUS:
Computer System with MASM Software
THEORY:
The Microsoft Macro Assembler (MASM) is an x86 assembler that uses
the Intel syntax for MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows. Beginning with MASM there
are two versions of the assembler - one for 16-bit and 32-bit assembly sources, and
another (ML64) for 64-bit sources only.
MASM is maintained by Microsoft, but since version 6.12 has not been sold as
a
separate
product,
it
is
instead
supplied
with
various
Microsoft SDKs and C compilers. Recent versions of MASM are included
with Microsoft Visual Studio.
Along with the instruction set of the microprocessor, programmer has to use
assembler directives while writing a program on MASM.
